Perimenopause and Hormone Imbalance:
Therapy for Symptom Relief
Perimenopause is the transitional stage leading up to menopause, and for many women, it can feel like a hormonal rollercoaster. Often beginning in your late 30s or early 40s, this phase is characterized by fluctuating hormone levels that can trigger a host of confusing and frustrating physical and emotional symptoms, all while you may still be having regular periods.
At EVEXIAS Health Solutions, we want you to know that you do not have to simply "power through" this challenging time. Through our nationwide network of experienced EvexiPEL® providers, we offer advanced, personalized care to help you restore balance, relieve symptoms, and feel vibrant and in control through every step of your perimenopausal journey.
Signs and Symptoms of Perimenopause
Because hormone levels can swing dramatically from one month to the next during perimenopause, the symptoms can feel unpredictable and intense. Common signs include:
- Irregular Periods: This is a hallmark of perimenopause. Your cycles may become shorter, longer, heavier, or lighter, or you may begin to skip periods altogether
- Hot Flashes and Night Sweats: Sudden, intense waves of heat during the day or drenching sweats at night that disrupt your sleep
- Intense Mood Swings: Feeling unusually irritable, anxious, or experiencing mood fluctuations that feel out of your control
- Severe Sleep Disruption: Difficulty falling or staying asleep, often due to night sweats or anxiety
- Worsening PMS: Noticing that your premenstrual symptoms, such as bloating and breast tenderness, have become more severe
- Vaginal Dryness and Low Libido: A decrease in natural lubrication and a noticeable drop in your interest in sex
- Brain Fog: A frustrating feeling of mental cloudiness and difficulty concentrating
- New or Worsening Headaches: An increase in the frequency or intensity of headaches or migraines, often linked to hormonal shifts
How Perimenopause Causes Hormonal Imbalance
During perimenopause, your ovaries' production of key hormones becomes erratic. This hormonal chaos is what drives your symptoms.
- Estrogen Fluctuations: Your estrogen levels can be very high one month and very low the next. These swings are responsible for many of the classic symptoms like hot flashes and irregular bleeding
- Progesterone Decline: As ovulation becomes less regular, your progesterone levels begin to decline steadily. Progesterone is a calming hormone, and its decline often leads to increased anxiety, irritability, and sleep problem
- Shifts in Testosterone: Testosterone, which is essential for energy and libido, also begins to decline, contributing to fatigue and a lower sex drive
These hormonal fluctuations can leave you feeling unlike yourself, but with the right support, you can bring your body back into a state of balance.
